Ever been to a wedding where the bride or groom said "NO" during Nikah?

I’ve never been to one where the bride/groom said no…but I was at a shotgun wedding once (the larka was becoming kharab, so it became a matter of izzat, and his parents had to get him married off quickly ), and when the maulvi asked the groom, he just sat there and didnt say anything for the longest time…like 3-4 minutes, no joke. So the bride’s father is freaking out cause he thinks he just wasted God knows how many lakhs of rupees on this wedding…the groom’s father and brothers are like practically yelling, ‘kaho na…qabul hai…bolte ho ya nahin tum!’ and the poor guy is just sitting there. So finally, after a couple minutes of drama, he finally mutters ‘qabul hai’ It was like the saddest wedding I’ve ever been to.

That’s terrible. I feel for the wife. Poor girl.

I’ve been to a wedding that was cancelled the day before the nikkah/rukhsati … the excuse the guy used was that his parents didn’t like the girl and didn’t want him to marry her cause they weren’t of the same status level. I don’t know why he went through with the big mendhi ceremony and waited literally until the day before the wedding to cancel it. Needless to say, it was extremely humiliating for the girl and her family.
